I spent many years working towards a P.B.Ed. in Ontario and a B.Ed in Nova Scotia and I never wanted to really teach. I applied for Practical Nursing a year ago because I want to help people heal. I had wanted to be pregnant and have a child by next September so that I could take a year of maternity and start towards my LPN in 2013. As any good teacher knows: things don't go as planned.
I was accepted into my program. I thought they might make me brush up on some sciences first but they didn't list any conditions. Awesome. Although, now I need the tuition for something more... a calling that I was never in denial about. I think about how I would have reacted to such an abrupt change a few years ago - not well, to say the least. And now? I am proud that if I can't go to school in two years to do what I really want career-wise that I will be doing something more important! I also figure that if they accepted me now they will accept me in five years. Or maybe this adoption process will open up a new way I can help heal people by helping them complete their families. It's just like the when and the age of Kid - who knows?
You should work for an adoption agency or create your own...
